Total War: SHOGUN 2 1vs1: Katana Wako vs Katana Samurai
Clan: Takeda vs Oda
Battle Difficulty: normal
*Katana Wako: BANZAI used*
Unique to the Wako Pirates, *Katana Wako* compare most similarly to Katana Samurai, but with worse melee attack, charge bonus, and armor. However, they are much cheaper, have superior defense, and can activate the Banzai ability to temporarily tip the scales in their favor. In the campaign, Katana Wako never make an appearance; the Wako pirates can't build land units, sticking to ships instead.
*Katana Samurai* wield katanas, excellent anti-infantry weapons. Katana Samurai have good armour and average defence; they can withstand prolonged melee but, due to their lack of a bonus against cavalry, are highly vulnerable against them--particularly if charged from the flanks or rear. Katana Samurai are particularly valuable in the early-mid game, where other factions ubiquitously field Yari Ashigaru and Bow Ashigaru, with few fielding substantial cavalry or other anti-infantry forces. They still suffer if they have to fight frontally against a Yari Wall, however, and function best when attacking from the flank or rear, and particularly when they're well-rested and fighting downhill. Shimazu Katana Samurai have +2 melee attack and +1 melee defense when compared to their standard counterparts. They are also cheaper to train and maintain (costing 650/125 instead of 750/150). In addition, while other clans can only recruit katana samurai after upgrading their training facilities, the Shimazu Clan can recruit katana samurai from the beginning of the campaign, from a region that gives them additional armor and melee attack. When trained by the Date Clan, Katana Samurai have +2 charge bonus. The Date similarly benefit from a blacksmith in their home region. Hattori Katana Samurai have kisho training, allowing them to be placed anywhere on the battlefield except the opponent's deployment zone during the deployment phase of a battle. They can also hide in light scrub.
